Authentic looking newspapers needed

I'm looking for a way to reproduce authentic looking Englsh newspapers of the 1950's for "Look Back in Anger" at KADS. Does anyone have an idea where I might find some images of papers of the time and how to reproduce them realistically? The actors will be very close to the the audience so anything wrong will be glaringly obvious. Please let me know if you have some brilliant ideas !!

yeah, if you can get onto a computer you can use photoshop or jasco paint shop pro 7 and dummy up one. so long as you have something that gives you guidelines on how they used to look so check out a library site in USA or here. if you do it on one of these programs you can fake it and get it printed by taking the disc to a printer desktop guy
